I'd like to try short answers API with MMBasic for myself. As for any APIs I tried I did the following: Opened a TCP client as "api.wolframalpha.com", port 80. Send TCP request as "GET /v1/result?appid=MYAPPIDHERE&i=speed+of+light"+CRLF Opening TCP clinet is ok, but for response I got 404 Not found (in html structure). Something I need to do in an other way? This was worked for 99% of simple APIs. Thanks a lot! Gábor Terék 2026-03-20T11:48:52Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3660974 Hello everyone, I am trying to use Wolfram g to use the Assistant. When I enter a query for example " Top 10 countries with the most engineers" The I get the subject error. Reporting the issue fails as well, saying something went wrong. ![enter image description here][1] [1]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=Capture1.PNG&userId=2698757 What is causing this error? How do I get this tool to work correctly? Be well, Ian Ian Anwar 2026-03-14T16:28:16Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3648303 Wolfram has developed several features for integrating our technology with LLMs. The major products are [chat notebooks](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/ChatNotebooks.html), [Notebook Assistant](https://www.wolfram.com/notebook-assistant-llm-kit/), [LLM functions](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/LLMFunctions.html), [remote MCP server](https://www.wolfram.com/artificial-intelligence/mcp-service/), [the AgentTools paclet](https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resources/Wolfram/AgentTools/), and [AgentOne](https://www.wolfram.com/apis/documentation/cag/wolfram-agent-one-api/). With all these offerings, it is confusing to know which one to use. This notebook should help you figure it out. > **Please comment about your experience with our AI product, we'd love to hear:** - Questions - Suggestions - Use cases - Anything else you'd like to share # Chat Notebook and Notebook Assistant ## Who are they for If you are using a notebook and you want AI to help you by writing, fixing, or editing the code, these are the tools for you. [Chat notebooks](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/ChatNotebooks.html) and [Notebook Assistant](https://www.wolfram.com/notebook-assistant-llm-kit/) are built right into the notebooks that Wolfram users are familiar with. These are great for quick tasks with a relatively small scale. You can ask them for pure code assistance help or to help solve problems where you think Wolfram will be a helpful tool. ## How do I use it To use either chat notebooks or Notebook Assistant, it's easiest with an [Wolfram Notebook Assistant + LLM Kit subscription](https://www.wolfram.com/notebook-assistant-llm-kit/). In recent versions, all notebooks are essentially chat notebooks. To use Chat notebooks, just insert a ChatInput cell into the body of a notebook (just click between cells and click single quote character). You can ask an LLM about whatever comes above that cell. ![enter image description here][1] To use Notebook Assistant, open the sidebar using the button in the toolbar ![enter image description here][2]. Type your question or demand in the input field and send it. The AI will "see" whatever is in the notebook. [![enter image description here][3]][4] There are subtle differences between the responses generated by Notebook Assistant and chat notebooks, because there are differences in the prompting, tools, and context. But I find the interface to be the most important difference. Most of the time I find it useful to have the chat conversation outside of the main notebook, so I use Notebook Assistant more than chat notebook cells. If I want to change the way the AI is working by customizing the LLM model, persona or tools, I use a chat cell. It has a [menu](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/ChatNotebooks.html?#1903336254) that makes it easy. But you should try them both and see what works for you. # LLM-based functions ## Who are they for If instead of wanting AI to help you create code, you want to create code that uses AI, then LLM-based functions are the right tool for you. There are many related functions: LLMSynthesize, LLMFunction, LLMSubmit, ChatEvaluate, ServiceExecute, etc. Each is well documented, so I won't go into details here. ## How do I use it First you need to think about which service you want to use (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, etc). Whatever service you choose there is a way to do it using these functions. Usually you will need to use the [LLMEvaluator](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/LLMEvaluator.html?q=LLMEvaluator) and [Authentication](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/Authentication) options. The simplest way is to use Wolfram's [LLMKit subscription](https://www.wolfram.com/notebook-assistant-llm-kit/). Then we take care of everything, your normal Wolfram account will just make it work. LLMSynthesize["The sky was "] > Out[]= "The sky was painted with hues of orange and pink as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the world. Wispy clouds drifted lazily, catching the fading light, while the first stars began to twinkle in the deepening blue. A gentle breeze whispered through the trees, carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers. It was a moment of tranquility, a perfect transition from day to night." Here is an example using OpenAI: LLMSynthesize["The sky was ", LLMEvaluator -> <|"Model" -> {"OpenAI", "gpt-5.1"}|>, Authentication -> SystemCredential["OPENAI_API_KEY"]] > Out[]= "...the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.If you're writing and want options, here are a few more ways to continue that line:- "The sky was bruised purple, heavy with unshed rain."- "The sky was a flat, exhausted gray, like someone had rubbed all the blue out of it."- "The sky was the pale white of old bones, washed clean by years of wind."Tell me the tone or genre you're going for (poetic, sci‑fi, horror, romance, etc.), and I can tailor a bunch of variations." These functions are extremely customizable, for example, you can add [LLMTool](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/LLMTool) and [LLMPromptGenerator](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/LLMPromptGenerator) features to make your own functions work with the AI. # MCP Service and the AgentTools paclet ## Who are they for If you are using an AI tool outside of a Wolfram product, like Cursor, Claude Code, or Antigravity and want to add Wolfram technology to it, you want to use one of our MCP servers. There are multiple ways to do that. If you have a Wolfram desktop product like Mathematica or Wolfram Engine AND are focused on Wolfram Language development, then you should use the [AgentTools paclet](https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resources/Wolfram/AgentTools/). This is the best choice for people building large-scale projects featuring Wolfram Language code. If you do not have a Wolfram desktop product OR if you are more interested in using Wolfram's tools, like computation and knowledge APIs, for creating non-Wolfram code then you should use the [MCP Service](https://www.wolfram.com/artificial-intelligence/mcp-service/). Most applications support our remote-hosted MCP server, but a few require special authentication protocols so in that case we also have a desktop application for connecting to the remote MCP server. ## How do I use the AgentTools paclet First you want a [Wolfram Notebook Assistant + LLM Kit subscription](https://www.wolfram.com/notebook-assistant-llm-kit/). You can use the paclet without it, but it will work much better with the subscription because internally, it will use Wolfram Notebook Assistant + LLM Kit to improve results. Then, follow the instructions in the documentation for the [Wolfram/AgentTools paclet](https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resources/Wolfram/AgentTools/). The paclet contains tools for installing its own configuration into most common applications. For users that are using agentic coding tools, take a look at the [Quick Start for AI Coding Applications](https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resources/Wolfram/AgentTools/tutorial/QuickStartforAICodingApplications.html). For users that are using in chat applications, like Claude Desktop, take a look at [Quick Start for Chat Clients](https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resources/Wolfram/AgentTools/tutorial/QuickStartforChatClients.html). ## How do I use the MCP Service First you need an [MCP Service subscription](https://www.wolfram.com/artificial-intelligence/mcp-service/). This is different than Notebook Assistant + LLM Kit. If you already have Notebook Assistant + LLM Kit, you probably want to use the AgentTools paclet. To make use of the MCP Service, you will also need access to an LLM through your MCP client. Once you have an MCP Service subscription you can follow the instructions for your application [here](https://support.wolfram.com/73463). # AgentOne ## Who is it for If you use an LLM directly via an API already and want to swap it out with one that has Wolfram knowledge and computation built into to it, then you use should use the [AgentOne API](https://www.wolfram.com/apis/documentation/cag/wolfram-agent-one-api/). AgentOne is the whole shebang, all prepackaged together into one API that you can use in place of another LLM API. ## How do I use AgentOne Contact our [partnerships](mailto:partner-program@wolfram.com) team. # Decision flowchart created with help from Notebook Assistant ![enter image description here][5] [1]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=1howdoIuseit.png&userId=20103 [2]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=2NotebookAssistant.png&userId=20103 [3]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=3NotebookAssistant.png&userId=20103 [4]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=3NotebookAssistant.png&userId=20103 [5]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=3tg5gzf5.jpg&userId=11733 Bob Sandheinrich 2026-03-03T11:41:16Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3641365 I've been downloading documents to my local drive from an archive that requires authentication in the form of UserAgent name and email and Host URL. I've been using URLDownload to do this. URLDownload[ HTTPRequest[ urlOfRemoteFile, <|"UserAgent" -> "firstName lastName emailAddress", "Host" -> "hostURL"|>], pathToLocalDirectory"]; But is it possible to use Import or some other function to load the contents of the file directly into a Mathematica notebook *without* having to save the file locally? I've tinkered with Import but can't get the authentication right. Any hint would be appreciated. Gregory Lypny 2026-02-18T18:17:49Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3562641 **The problem** I run Mathematica 12 from home via a Win11 VM on Proxmox. This configuration has run fine for years. Recently during an upgrade to Win11 25H2 I went to test to make sure everything was functional with a quick BenchmarkReport[] but it caused the kernel to die at Test 3, FFT. Its a very repeatable failure. Just before upgrading to 25H2 I had changed my processor type for this VM to x86-64-v3 +aes from -v2 + aes. I had issues on another vm where Win11 didnt want to upgrade with v2. I didnt originally run the processor as "host" as I am running dual E5-2699v4 Xeons, Win11 doesnt support by age despite having all the instructions needed. I have used this VM with Win10 and Win11 for years running Mathematica without issue. In the past I would use BenchmarkReport[] as a quick check of functionality after any upgrades or changes. This is the first time its failed. A quick test using ParallelTable[sin[x],{x,0,pi,10^-6}] works fine A quick test of Fourier[{1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0}] works fine But a simple, Needs["Benchmark`"] BenchmarkReport[] Fails while calculating Step 3, FFT. The kernel simply die with no error message or warning. If I watch carefully with Task Manager it looks like the kernel dies, Mathematica recreates the kernel, then it dies again immediately. I also tried running this command through mathscript with -verbose but it gives me no additional details why its dying. I went back and tested some older notebooks I had. One of the first ones I tried died during a NonLinearModelFit of a PieceWise function with Sin[]s. Piecewise[{ { y0 + ( A1 Sin[ 2 \[Pi] ( x - x1)/t1] Sin[ 2 \[Pi] ( x - x2)/t2] ) + A3 Sin[2 \[Pi] (x - x3)/t3], x >= xon }, {y0, x < xon} }] This had worked in the past but now it dies just like BenchmarkReport, the kernel dies with no errors. **Fixes tried** So, I set the cpu back to v2 + aes for the vm config in proxmox but the kernel still dies. Set the cpu to Host in case its an issue with AES being passed correctly but it still dies I had Ballooning memory on so I turned it off, no change I had NUMA on so I turned it off, no change I uninstalled, reinstalled Mathematica 12.0 but it still fails I installed a demo copy of Mathematica 14.3, BenchmarkReport[] and my notebook run without issue. **System Info** Running a network version of Mathematica 12.0 with MathLM on another VM for the license. License is for 2 instances and 16 kernels. The VM is running under proxmox 8.4.14. The vm was just recently upgraded to Win11 25H2 but I am not sure when I last ran BenchmarkReport[]. I have run BenchmarkReport[] on this vm multiple times with some older flavors of win11 but I cant remember when I last ran it. I had recently installed the virtio drivers for this vm on the previous Win11 version but I hadnt run Mathematica since then. Could be a contributing factor. Proxmox has gone through a recent upgrade with a reboot of the host. I hadnt tried test Mathematica afterwards. Could be a contributing factor. The vm has been tested with cpu set to Host, x86-64-v2+aes, x86-64-v3+aes, numa on and off, ballooning on and off, with 32GB memory configured for the vm. This vm is set to get 2 processors of 8 cores each, The vm is only running microsoft virtual graphic drivers and is only accessed via remote desktop, not SPICE. As far as I can tell Win11 is working as expected. I am considering a fresh install of Win11 if no better ideas surface. The host system is dual E5-2699 v4 with 512GB. The host system runs a mix of vms and containers. **Summary** I know this is probably a very weird edge case of using a VM with such an old version of Mathematica. The kernel dying does seem to fail for more than just Benchmark so its most likely not a single package responsible. The failure is limited to Mathematica 12 as far as I can tell. Just wanted to figure this our before I start embarking on a bunch of calculations. Any thoughts are appreciated. Mike Morrell 2025-10-19T19:10:08Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3456917 Hello, My question is: "what info to enter in MQTT explorer to see into my Wolfram generated MQTT channel". I have setup a MQTT in Wolfram: def = CreateChannel["mymqtt", Permissions -> "Public"] I start the listner: listner = ChannelListen[def] I send a value: ChannelSend[def, "Hello3"] Then I want to connect using "MQTT explorer" to see into the content ![enter image description here][1] maybe I need some extra data in the "advanced" section. ![enter image description here][2] [1]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=mqttexplorer.png&userId=3456484 [2]: https://community.wolfram.com//c/portal/getImageAttachment?filename=mqttexplorer2.png&userId=3456484 This should be simple but I need some directions because I could not make it work. Kind regards, Pieter Pieter van Bijnen 2025-05-07T08:50:25Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/1829195 As a basic user of Mathematica 12, on a **Mac** (10.14 / 10.15), I was rather pleased that I got parallize working. What I had was the following: Parallelize[Table[Fold[montecarlofunction[#1, baseValue, #2] &, startValue,aRandomSelection[[aSelection]]], (aSelection, numberOfTrials)]] This was all working nicely until I tried to add a bit of logging into the 'montecarlofunction'. The logging was used to verify the function for a single run. The result was very slow Parallelize (reason was an append to a list being used as the log). When I finally realised my error I then aborted the calculation removed the logging and reran the Parallelize. It came up with "the kernel is not responding to a dynamic evaluation". Since then the Paralelizing always fails with the error. Without Parallelize it ran. Until today. Even in the single run run of my function I got the the "kernel is not responding to a dynamic evaluation". This single run has been working without problems for at least a year. Even better - after a clean install of Mathematica I still get the error, lots of beach ball. Today I got the error if I open help, if the mouse goes over a graphic, etc, in fact when ever Mathematica randomly decides to do so. The way to stop it is to stop the Kernel but that's not a solution. So what is it's cause? If there a way to find out what is causing the dynamic evaluation. The very odd thing about all of this is that the error appeared from one moment to the next. My first reaction was it must be something Apple changed in the OS or firmware due to an overnight update. But that seems rather unlikely as more user would have this problem. Assuming that somewhere in my code I have something that is causing this. How would I go about finding this?

Roger J Brown 2024-12-21T18:41:15Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3340727 Hello everyone I have trouble using Mathematica remotely... My local machine is a Windows using Mathematica 14.0. The remote machine is a Linux also using Mathematica 14.0. The connection between both machines is via private/public keys so no password is needed. If I do "ssh user@machine MathKernel" in a terminal, it works and I have the Mathematica prompt. In Mathematica on the local machine, I have configured the remote kernel using the basic options. If I try to execute a cell remotely : - the cell is marked as "executing" - I see in a "top" command on the remote machine that a MathKernel process has launched but then stays at 0% cpu - It hangs like this for 30-40 seconds and then it quits with the message "The remote process for kernel 'kernel name' has unexpectedly terminated with error 2.

S G 2019-10-08T14:50:59Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3330117 Hello all, Thank you for taking the time to read my post, I have wasted hours and hours trying to figure this out! If anybody can possibly tell me **how in the world I can call the API as well as have it return the "step-by-step" instructions for each query** (if available of course) I would be beyond grateful!!! I hope I didn't just waste 60 bucks for nothing! I have been messing around with it for probably over 30-40 hours and cannot get any of the useful info returned, such as: podstate, step-by-step solution, etc. I can get the result returned, but have messed with many of the various "Parameters" to return what I need or want it to, and have had no luck. I can get it to return most items, but not the pod that has access to, or can see, the "step-by-step" solution. Please help!! I am a pro member, I actually got the pro membership specifically for this reason. I use wolfram in OpenAI and I love it, and now I want to integrate it into my "tutor" workflow to study for various math exams, tests, among many other mathematics applied use cases. If mathmatica can call the API for step by step, why wouldn't the standard WolframAlpha API? I have tried many of the API's, and the only two that do somewhat well are the "converstaional" and the "full results" but neither is returning anything that has to do with the "step-by-step" solution, nor any pods that can see or return any info regarding these pods/subpods. Just so you can all see, this is an example of one of the **many** http get requests I have made and sent to the API. Dont be too critical on it, as I am merely trying to tinker to get it to return the output that I am in desperate need of! Thank you all again for your time and I look very very forward to reading any responses I may get. **I am very eager to put this project to rest!** HTTP Request Example: // Define the API endpoint and parameters const apiUrl = 'http://api.wolframalpha.com/v2/query'; const appid = 'MY_APP_ID'; const input = `${$json.message.content.equation} step-by-step`; const format = 'plaintext,mathml'; const output = 'JSON'; // Construct the full URL with query parameters const url = `${apiUrl}?appid=${appid}&input=${encodeURIComponent(input)}&format=${format}&output=${output}`; try { // Perform the HTTP GET request const response = await this.helpers.httpRequest({ method: 'GET', url: url, json: true, }); return [ { json: response, }, ]; } catch (error) { // Handle any errors that occur during the request throw new Error(`HTTP Request failed: ${error.message}`); } Christropher Chausse 2024-11-28T03:37:01Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/1307037 Hi all, I am interested in the capturing the dynamics of a 3d vector like the ones presented here: https://journals.aps.org/prb/supplemental/10.1103/PhysRevB.91.064423 The video is generated using Mathematica in Mac OS. I am using the same code for plotting my graphs. It works perfectly in Mathematica. But when I export it as a .mov/.avi file, it behaves weirdly (My video is attached). I am plotting the dynamics of a vector in 3d space. I found two issues: Problems: 1. It rotates very quickly. 2. It switches from one position to another and then again comes back to the original place. Both of these problems were not present in Mathematica. Only when I am going to export it any video format, exported video behaves incorrectly. I am using 11.2 version of the software on Windows. In summary, my question is why I am unable to record the exact video that is displayed in Mathematica itself? I'll greatly appreciate any reply. Best, Abir Shadman 2018-03-22T17:58:36Z https://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/3293268 I have a notebook that used to work using v13.3, that updates the data used with URLDownload: URLDownload["https://mydomain/myfile.csv", "myfile.csv"] This used to work in v13.3. Now I upgraded to v14.1 and instead it says: invalid request. I tried to get the http error code, by adding options as in the documentation, but it only returns this message (that btw is not seen as an error, so it is now shown when running commands with suppressed output...initially I didn't really understand what was going on...). I suspect the download is not even attempted as it does not like the format of the request.... any tips? Giorgio Busoni 2024-10-07T22:48:42Z
